Since upgrade to 38.2, whenever I want to forward a message, if I had forwarded a previous message with attachments, the new message contains the attachments and sometimes even the email addresses from the old message. In the attached image, I forwarded a message with Excel file, but two other images and two message parts from previous forwards were added.

It's even worse... When creating new message, not only when forwarding, previous recipients and attachments are added to the new message.
